Ovo s čitanjem i zaboravom do ljeta ću i ja potpisati
Ima i u Novom Zagrebu i na Peščenici, manje se čeka
Smijem li na ovu temu staviti link na članak, a ne na knjigu? Čitam ga upravo.

Valjda smijem... Mogao bi na filozofski kutak, ali prva tema je info, druga osjećaji, a ovaj članak mi je više za neko čitalačko-filozofsko-sociološko-you name it istraživanje i čitanje kasnije, pa evo ovdje... Par citata, koji mi se, nažalost, čine jako "u trenutku" (iako obožavam internet i sve dobro što nam je donio, vidim i drugu stranu).
“I think we have created tools that are ripping apart the social fabric,” said the venture capitalist and former Facebook executive Chamath Palihapitiya in 2017."
"In 2000, Wired magazine predicted that the internet would heal all of America’s divisions, and the world’s. “We are, as a nation, better educated, more tolerant, and more connected because of – not in spite of – the convergence of the Internet and public life. Partisanship, religion, geography, race, gender, and other traditional political divisions are giving way to a new standard – wiredness – as an organizing principle for political and social attitudes.” Few predictions have been more wrong. Turning the world wide web into a social network, with the rise of “social media” in the first decades of the 21st century, only further corroded social ties."
"Before the pandemic, there was a real world, and this fake one, real friendships and “friends”, political communities and “followers”, genuine political expression and “likes”. The risk, when interactions with other human beings are narrowed to these remote, glancing and often combative exchanges – simulations – is that, once the lockdowns are over, people will bring the culture of the virtual into the real, creating even angrier, more impatient, more superficial, more transactional, more commercial and less democratic societies."
